Overview

Currently, an interventional protocol for physical activity during pregnancy is underway at the Clermont University Hospital (PREGMOUV study). In addition, we have implemented a protocol for 2 years monitoring of children birthed of this study (NEOMOUV study).

Recent data from the scientific literature show that a woman's engagement in regular and appropriate physical activity during her pregnancy presents few dangers while ensuring benefits for the mother-baby dyad. Indeed, physical activity reduces maternal complications such as preeclampsia, gestational diabetes and depression and has many advantages for the child with in particular a reduction in the risk of macrosomia then obesity and diabetes.

Neonatal sepsis is a major risk factor for childhood mortality. There is strong negative association between cord blood levels of calprotectin and sepsis risk in human newborns with levels of calprotectin at birth are significantly lower in infants that later experience blood-culture-proven late-onset neonatal sepsis. In adults, plasma calprotectin levels increase following acute exercise. However after 4 weeks trainging plasma calprotectin level decrease. So in response to acute exercise, plasma calprotectin levels increase but in contrast, there is a negative association between basal plasma calprotectin levels and regular physical activity. Therefore, we do not know what impact mother' regular physical activity can have on the level of calprotectin in the cord blood.

The objective of this project is to investigate the impact of physical activity during pregnancy on calprotectin value at cord blood.

Eligibility

Inclusion Criteria:

FAQs

Learn more about clinical trials

What is a clinical trial?

A clinical trial is a study designed to test specific interventions or treatments' effectiveness and safety, paving the way for new, innovative healthcare solutions.

Why should I take part in a clinical trial?

Participating in a clinical trial provides early access to potentially effective treatments and directly contributes to the healthcare advancements that benefit us all.

How long does a clinical trial take place?

The duration of clinical trials varies. Some trials last weeks, some years, depending on the phase and intention of the trial.

Do I get compensated for taking part in clinical trials?

Compensation varies per trial. Some offer payment or reimbursement for time and travel, while others may not.

How safe are clinical trials?

Clinical trials follow strict ethical guidelines and protocols to safeguard participants' health. They are closely monitored and safety reviewed regularly.
